Short Stay Homes in Fordingbridge, Hampshire operates as a self-catering holiday cottage letting agency rather than a riding school or equestrian centre. Properties are available to book across Hampshire, the New Forest, Dorset, Devon and the Salisbury area, with each cottage providing a base from which guests can explore the surrounding countryside on foot or on horseback.
What sets this agency apart for equestrian travellers is the option to bring your own horse along on holiday. DIY livery is offered to guests staying at the properties, with practical yard facilities including a paddock for turnout, stabling for horses and a tack room for storing equipment. Riders are responsible for looking after their own horses during the stay, making the arrangement well suited to experienced owners who are comfortable managing their horse away from home.
The setting in Fordingbridge places visitors within reach of several established riding areas. The New Forest, with its extensive network of bridleways and common grazing land, is on the doorstep, and the wider Hampshire and Dorset countryside offers further opportunities for hacking. Cottages vary in size and location, so guests can choose a property that best matches their planned routes and the type of riding they intend to do.
Short Stay Homes is listed on the British Horse Society approved register, which has been verified. The postcode for enquiries and bookings is SP6 2JT. Prospective guests should contact the agency directly to confirm individual cottage availability, livery arrangements and any specific requirements for bringing horses to a particular property.
